Farmer's Wife Has Space

Chapter 395 Someone Takes the Lead, Naturally Someone Follows
"Why don't you use your brains to think about it. Your ancestors chose to live and work in peace and contentment on both sides of the river. It is because the Meijiang River is wide enough and deep, and the dam is high enough and stable. The chance of flooding is almost zero!"

"It's just that you are not scared!"

Master Zeng made such a provocation, some of the refugees who didn't really want to leave their homeland really regretted it.

The crowd became restless.

"I said it would be fine!"

"If I knew I would suffer such a crime, I wouldn't evacuate even if I was beaten to death!"

"If you don't open the city gate, let's go home!"

Yue Lingzhi was very angry, but at this time, he had no choice but to suppress his anger when he asked people, "Master Zeng! We beg you! Now they are all outside the city gate, mainly because it is wet and cold. If they are not allowed to go in, someone will will fall!"

A representative of the refugees also said loudly: "Master Zeng, please let us in! We can swear one by one that we are all honest and good citizens, and we can never be gangsters!"

Gu Zheng saw that some old people and children couldn't bear it anymore, and they looked at Mr. Zeng with cold eyes, and he already regarded him as a dead person in his heart!
He didn't want to find Master Zeng's fault anymore, he just found a time to kill him!
But now, the city wall is too high, even if he can climb it, he may be shot to death by the soldiers' arrows, so he has to beg Mr. Zeng!
Gu Zheng took a deep breath: "Master Zeng, Gu Zheng is willing to use his wealth and life to guarantee that among these people, there is no villain who wants to get involved in murder and arson!"

"Actually, if the villains want to enter the city, why should they mix among these refugees?"

The refugees all agreed.

"That's right, if those villains want to rob, they have already entered the city to set foot on them!"

"You're clearly an excuse!"

"Excuses! Excuses!"

"Quickly open the city gate! Quickly open the city gate!"

Master Zeng sneered.

"My lord, I didn't want to expose you at first! You brought valuables to me yesterday and told me that I want me to issue an order to let the people leave their homes and go to Meicheng, and then you will give them rice to cook porridge for them." , in this way, even if there is no flood, it can still earn you a good reputation as a kind-hearted man!"

"I firmly disagree! But I never expected that you would flatter and bribe Fengliang County Magistrate! Let him do as you want!"

"You are too much! For your good reputation, you don't care about the life and death of the people! You just produce some rice! But these people, men and women, are exposed to the wind and rain, how can you bear it?"

This is simply nonsense!

When Yue Lingzhi heard this, she was so angry that she wanted to kill someone.

It's a pity that she doesn't have anti-aircraft guns in her space, otherwise she could bombard this prefect!
After listening to Mr. Zeng's words, some people believed it and cursed, and some people really turned around and went home.

If someone takes the lead, others will follow.

The yamen servants couldn't stop them.

Seeing this scene, Lord Zeng was secretly happy, seeing that Gu Zheng and Yue Lingzhi had nothing to do with him, he was a little proud.

Gu Zheng and Yue Lingzhi went to find Fengliang County Magistrate. He knew about it. Seeing the continuous heavy rain, he was also shocked. What if there was really a flood?
So, he didn't try to stop Gu Zheng and the others, thinking that when the refugees arrived in Meicheng, he had to pretend to care about it, which could also be counted as his political achievements.

But he didn't expect that Gu Changsheng's people who stayed in Meicheng gave him a mission to prevent refugees from entering the city, distort the facts, and frame Gu Zheng. Continue to support Gu Changsheng.
